59 reports against MACC officers

The Star

A TOTAL of 59 police reports were lodged between 2005 and 2010 against the Malaysian Anti-Cor­ruption Commission (MACC) officers for allegedly using force on complainants during investigations.

Out of the number, 23 are still pending investigations by the police, 29 are awaiting instructions from the Attorney-General’s Chambers and seven have been classified as “no further action”.

The figure was provided in a written statement from the Home Ministry to Gobind Singh Deo (DAP - Puchong).

“It is strange that none of these 29 reports was taken to court despite complaints made as far back as 2005,” he said in Parliament lobby yesterday.

“The Attorney General should explain why his office is still sitting on those files.”
